After the storm, Sharm el Sheikh, Sinai, Egypt

News update:
Egypt police clash with protesters over flood crisis

The inner part of the Old market.

Still mud everywhere and the cleaning goes on.

Trash piled up behind the houses, mostly washed down
from the mountain top.
I guess they were lucky that the whole mountain didn’t
come down on them.
That area is surrounded by various big Clifftops.

Ruined furniture everywhere.

Pics from yesterday morning.

This is the last part of my posts of the storm and the aftermath.

The mud everywhere makes it look like a frontier town of a by-gone era.

Such devastation. You have captured this very well. What a job it's going to be to get back to some normalcy

Kein schöner Anblick. Da müsste jetzt mal richtig ordentlich aufgeräumt werden, hoffentlich wird das auch entsprechend organsiert

Liebe Grüsse

Hello Nicole, Haven't been able to visit for a while for various reasons and now I do it seems you've been experiencing terrible storms and devastation. Your photos have documented it all extremely well, and I'm sorry for all the difficulties you must now be experiencing because of it. Am I right to assume your apartment is a little way from where the worst problems hit? Stay safe. Hope you have a good weekend.

Thanks everyone - yes, we are away from the worst hit areas.

There are still areas at the Sinai where people are without aid.
Houses got destroyed and all the government did was pay the people 100LE (around 18$ ) and give them a piece bread, cheese and 1 orange juice,...

Die Lage dort scheint nicht gerade günstig zu sein; da sind Erdrutsche ja voraussehbar. - Ist denn eigentlich unter dem Schlamm Pflaster oder irgendeine Befestigung? Sind da richtige Straßen?

@April - Ja, Strassen sind da schon drunter.
Und unsere Ecke hier hat wirklich Glueck gehabt.
Es gibt noch 2 Regionen, in denen es echt schlimm ist.
Haeuser zerstoert, Strassen kaputt und jetzt wieder neue Regenfaelle.... die Regierung macht nichts

Comment from: april [Visitor] · http://april11.wordpress.com/

Es sieht so aus, als ob dort nur Schlamm und sonst nichts wäre.

JETZT kann die Regierung auch nichts mehr machen, das müsste vorher geschehen. Aber es macht anscheinend jeder, was er will und nachher wird gejammert.

Das mit dem nichts machen, war auf die Regionen bezogen, bei denen jetzt noch katasrophale Lage herrscht.
